Ingredients
Scale
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup sliced mushrooms (cremini or shiitake)
- 2 oz soft goat cheese (or crumbled feta)
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter (or olive oil)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh herbs (chopped parsley or chives) for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare Your Ingredients: Clean the mushrooms with a damp cloth and slice them thinly. Chop any fresh herbs you wish to use.
- Sauté the Mushrooms: In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the sliced mushrooms and a pinch of salt. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until golden brown and fragrant.
- Whisk Your Eggs: In a bowl, crack the eggs and whisk until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Cook the Eggs: Pour the egg mixture into the skillet over the sautéed mushrooms. Allow it to cook without stirring for about two minutes until the edges begin to set.
- Add Goat Cheese: Sprinkle goat cheese evenly over one half of the omelet while it's still slightly runny on top. Optionally, add fresh herbs at this stage.
- Fold & Serve: When the omelet looks mostly set but still soft in the middle (about another minute), gently fold it over using a spatula. Slide onto a plate, garnish with more herbs if desired, and serve hot.
